good Sunday morning to you we are back with some quick headlines for you
another tragedy on a Delta Airlines flight as yet another dog was found dead
this is heartbreaking Alejandro you can see him right here was
traveling in a crate in the Jets cargo from Phoenix to Newark New Jersey the
Pomeranians owners say that he was found at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport
Airport during their layover Delta says it is now investigating that incident
and Delaware will be the first new state to allow sports gambling outside of
Nevada Delaware sports pig gaming products goes live in three casinos on
Tuesday afternoon it is the first state to launch a full-scale sports betting
operation since the Supreme Court struck down a ban on such wagering back in May
at over D thanks Abby Google is now apologizing after search results for
North Carolina's Republican state senator Trudy Wade showed her image with
the word bigot smeared across it google tweeting quote we apologized to Senator
Wade that this image appeared in the knowledge panel in search images that
appear in the knowledge panel or either selected by verified users are
automatically sourced from sites across the web sounds unbelievable joining us
now to respond North Carolina State Senator Trudy wade good morning senator
I'm doing great but I got to say you probably can't be doing too well because
this is horrifying to me the idea that you could wake up and all of a sudden
your image has bigot splashed across it well sir is not
that surprising to me or my colleagues back in North Carolina we certainly see
this a lot in editorials and the news media especially the liberal media on
social media if it's not unusual for us being conservatives well but it seems
like it could go further because when you look at Google's tweet about how the
images work when you search them they say in this instance the image was
hosted on a student news blog upon being alerted to this issue we immediately
removed it from the knowledge panel so my question is it seems like and is this
have they called you first of all Google to offer any more explanation
beyond this tweet no sir they haven't and actually it was removed after it
went to a national audience it wasn't removed when it was first
reported Wow and so my concern is just seeing this it seems like not just a
politician but a small business owner in North Carolina South Carolina Georgia
all of a sudden you could wake up one morning and if a customer didn't like
the service or doesn't like the cheeseburger you made for him they just
call your races they can call you a bigot and they can manipulate the image
so that when people search your name or your restaurant it sounds to me like you
could wake up to a horrifying situation yes sir reporter hadn't called me about
this I would probably not then or unless a constituent had phoned me or quad and
so in this case they're saying that a student newspaper that I assume was
targeting you called you a bigot was there an incident that led them to have
any factual basis to question whether or not you are a bigot the City Council at
the time but of course it's on any outlet like that you can go on and call
anyone anything is right - very hard to get it off so there was not a specific
issue of vote or something where unfairly or fairly they were
interpreting your vote your statement your speech there wasn't even an
underlying issue where they could falsely claim that you're a bigot there
was there was nothing specific well it was a actually something the resolutions
of the City Council did regarding the marriage amendment with the General
Assembly which I wasn't serving on it okay so they were taking that so does
that tell you as a politician that basically if somebody doesn't like you
as you mentioned a moment ago with the internet they go on a blog they can go
in the comments section they can do all kinds of things and all of a sudden
paint you as a racist paint you as a bigot even if there's no evidence to
that fact that's correct and it's not only all social media they do it in the
liberal newspapers every day if you're a conservative and especially a
conservative woman so final question what's your message to Google this
morning what do you want them to do not just for you
but any conservative any liberal out there frankly how this could be
manipulated and misused what's your message to Google what do you want to
happen they need to have a procedure in order to take those images down when
they're not factual and also the image is still up on Google Images that we're
talking about they haven't taken that down yet and I haven't heard I'm Google
at all state senator we appreciate you coming in to tell us our story it's
really concerning that this could happen to someone like you we wish you well in
the future yes sir and if people would like to read
more about it they can go to my website Trudy Wacom all right senator Wade
thanks for coming in thank you meanwhile this is a Fox News Alert
a manhunt intensifying at this hour as police in Phoenix are now linking a
string of mystery murders how one of those murders is actually tied to Jones
JonBenet Ramsey remember that case in Colorado and the Trump economy surges
adding 223,000 jobs in May but apparently it's not good enough for
Nancy Pelosi she once said the tax cut would be crumbs now she says the jobs
numbers it's not good news former governor Mike Huckabee he's got some
thoughts on that next this is Armageddon in terms of the bonus that corporate
America received versus the crumbs that they are giving to workers to kind of
but the schmooze on is so pathetic it's just like giving you a bowl of doggy Doo
put a cherry on top and call it a chocolate sundae
oh boy that last one has a rejoinder for that one because I forgot about that you
do doggy Doo and you put a little cherry on top like a chocolate sundae and
governor Huckabee no never you ever had one of those I can't say that I've ever
had one of those but apparently Nancy would know what those are like so I'll
just leave that one to her statement yes some things to say about the economy you
hadn't some good numbers come out some very good numbers just a couple days ago
on Friday and she says that the maze jobs report shows that strong employ
numbers mean little to the families hit with soaring new costs under the
Republicans watch what do you make of her response to that
look if Nancy Pelosi was given a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow she'd say
it was too heavy to pick up and it was going to be labor intensive and it might
give her a hernia reaching over to grab it I I just don't even know how to begin
to say anything other than please God let Nancy Pelosi continue to be the
voice of the Democratic Party for the midterm elections because it's the best
thing that the Republicans could possibly have and all we need to do is
take her words put it on television and play it over and over again because all
those families out there in America who are getting bonuses and pay raises who
have jobs that were unemployed they're gonna say what lala land is Nancy live
in that she doesn't understand that these unemployment numbers which are
historic are incredibly good for a lot of people and especially for minorities
who have the lowest unemployment numbers ever in history
governor you understand partisan politics she's a Democrat our
president's a republican she's got a poke a hole in it but it is it they're
not some point at which you can just acknowledge you know what when people
are doing well that's a good thing well you've got to do that because otherwise
you'll lose your credibility which is what the Democrats have done I mean they
say they're for certain things for example they want to increase
minority employment but when it happens then they're unhappy with it they want
to move the embassy to Jerusalem until Donald Trump does it and then they think
he shouldn't if they want to have peace on the Korean Peninsula until we get
close to it and then they don't like the way in which it's being delivered I mean
you just take a list of anything that the president has done positively
things that have happened in a strong way and they'll find a way to somehow
you know dislike it it's like the man who lived his whole life and he thought
the whole world stunk until one day he realized he had Limburger cheese on his
upper lip and it wasn't the world that stunk it was him and that's what I think
I'm seeing with the Democrats I wonder governor whether you know when
you look at the president's tweets and some of his public comments he's
obviously frustrated with the Moller investigation calls it a witch-hunt and
maybe that's why he believes some of this good news you're talking about on
the in me for example is not always breaking
through to the American people what do you make of this 20 page letter from his
attorneys asserting this broad executive power certainly as Alan Dershowitz and
others have said firing James Comey the president had the power to do that
whether people like that or not but do you really believe as they
suggest that the president basically cannot face obstruction of justice
charges that seems like a broad view a very broad view of the Constitution well
I think it's pretty clear they can't face it for firing a person that he had
the power to fire I mean the the the magic words in employment and federal
are state government for that matter is at the pleasure of which means that a
unclassified employee can be fired for any cause you don't
even have to reason you can just say you know I didn't like the tie you wore
today you're gone that's how it works it may not be pleasant but that's how it is
you shut down the whole investigation does he have the power to do that he may
have the power to do it it would not be a wise thing to do just because the
political blowback of that would be just unbearable and and frankly I don't think
he needs to this is an investigation that so far has not produced one
scintilla of evidence that the president was involved with anything that was
untoward so in a way the transparency with which he has approached it and he
has has been good but I think his attorneys are dead right when they say
they're not going to put the president in a chair facing Bob Muller look let's
go back to the simple thing of the Miranda warning Jack Webb on the opening
of every dragnet would say you have the right to remain silent if you give up
that right everything you say can and will be used against you in a court of
law so anybody with you know enough brain power to get a motorcycle halfway
around an English pea would understand you don't sit down with the person who's
out to get you and start volunteering information and singing like an opera
star because no good will come from that yes you're innocent especially if you're
innocent yeah especially if you're honest absolutely governor thank you
very much governor always good to see you we love your sense of humor
thank you very much I could I don't know what an English pea
is yeah is that a curve is that an actual piece
I don't know what miso soup is I don't know dog you do to smelly cheese on your
lip to the to the motorcycle we're all over them hey alright we've got a lot of
news on a very serious tone I want to bring you some headlines starting with a
Fox News Alert and a potential serial killer case in Arizona police think a

North Korea Abbey thank you very much appreciate it well the California
primaries are right around the corner Democrats are becoming concern that
they're wide candidate field will hurt their chances in key congressional races
so are they right to worry here to break down all of it editor at large for
ballot a ballot pedia and publisher of Scott Rasmussen calm Scott Rasmussen sir
good morning thank you good morning so there's these three important races in
California that could hell determine the future the House of
Representative thats right these are three districts Orange County area they
typically your vote Republican at a local level all held by Republicans
right now but Hillary Clinton carried these districts so in a normal state in
a normal election you would say these are prime Democratic prick up
opportunities but this is California it's not normal at all and the
Republicans hold all these seats right but they've got a different process in
California that's right they have a jungle primary and so in each of these
districts it plays out a little bit differently but all the candidates from
both parties are thrown on the ballot together okay the top two go to the
finals is not automatically one party and another party it's for it it's the
top two that's right so you know you start to look at a race in one of the
districts there are 16 candidates running and another one you get two
strong Republicans and a bunch of lesser-known Democrats what could happen
is if 60% of the votes say were cast for a Democrat but two Republicans split the
other 40% you know then you get two Republicans they're 20% of the vote and
all the Democrats get nine eight whatever and then it's two Republicans
on the ballot that's right or the other fluke is you have one Republican
endorsed by an incumbent clearly upfront this is happening in California 49 and
then you've got four other candidates within three points of each other in the
latest polling so it's a total toss-up the Democrats could if they win these
sheets if they get a Democrat on the ballot in November they have a shot to
pick up these House seats however if they get shut out all of a sudden
they're Republican victories no matter what so people may be saying okay what
why are we talking about these three races in California because it all adds
up it does add up look there's 23 seats the
Democrats need to win control of the US House they need to pick up a net of 23 a
bunch of possible pickups were in Pennsylvania we talked about that a few
weeks ago mm-hmm California another big haul there are up to 10 seats of
Democrats think you know the boy we have a shot here picking up some ground and
every one of those seats they lose or they give up a chance to win creates
problems makes this 23 number so much harder to get absolutely so and part of
it the national mood matters in this because there does you could get if
let's say that scenario the one scenario you describe happens where you've got a
strong Republican and then a toss-up for three or four others you could afford a
bad damn a candidate if the winds are with you
but if they're not gonna do similar back in December the Democrats were up by 13
points on the Democrat on the genera remind me what was December again that
was right before tax reform was passed and so the Republicans hadn't
accomplished a whole lot there a lot of frustration with the base and so at that
point the Democrats can give up a lot of seats frivolously right now it is going
to be a race by race battle at Scott Rasmussen calm we do every we have a
rating at every race and of the most competitive races right now the
Democrats would have to win 24 out of 31 to win control 24 to 31 that's a pretty
good winning percentage if they give up two or three of those seats all of a
sudden you're down they have to win 24 out of 28 or 29 and there's a lot of
other issues here but it's a race by race fight because we're down to a very
close generic congressional ballot if it's a four point margin on election day
we're gonna be a very late to see more or less margin of error so this jungle
primary in California is on Tuesday two days away two days away
no stupid system you don't like that that's no there's no no other way to
destroy we're stuck with the system we have right now and I can't predict
anything about these three districts because it is a stupid cyst yeah it's a
it's a total luck of the draw we will be following Scott thanks for being really
appreciate it well is there such thing as too much
patriotism well one business hit with a violation for what their town calls an
excessive amount of American flags their response will make you even prouder to
be an American and Father's Day just two weeks away have you bought dad something
yet most heads are shaking just like hurts
he's got the gifts including this robotic lawn mower
you
